Time For Some Country Fried Steak...at Chili's.

It's one of those days when a craving for a certain dish just doesn't fade away. And when it's a craving for some good old fashioned Southern style Country Fried Steak, you can always count on Chili's to do the job...


Almost resembling the classic Wiener Schnitzel, and it's no surprise, since its origins can be traced back to German and Austrian immigrants who settled in the American Southwest, making this a southern classic on its own. The thin slab of beefsteak is tenderized, breaded and deep-fried, smothered with a creamy black pepper gravy. Pair it with some mashed potatoes and sweet corn-on-the-cob, and you've got a classic on a plate.
